Relationship of individual scapular anatomy and degenerative rotator cuff tears.
BACKGROUND The etiology of rotator cuff disease is age related, as documented by prevalence data. Despite conflicting results, growing evidence suggests that distinct scapular morphologies may accelerate the underlying degenerative process. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the predictive power of 5 commonly used radiologic parameters of scapular morphology to discriminate betwee...
متن کاملRelationship of Acromial Morphology and Rotator Cuff Integrity
The influence of individual acromial morphology on the pathogenesis of rotator cuff tears remains controversial. Since Neer first described the impingement syndrome, several authors have described the morphology of the acromion. In this study, we try to find a physiopathological correlation between the anatomical morphology of the acromion based on these two recently descripted parameters (Acro...
متن کاملCorrelation of acromial morphology with impingement syndrome and rotator cuff tears
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Indications for acromioplasty are based on clinical symptoms and are generally supported by typical changes in acromial morphology on standard radiographs. We evaluated 5 commonly used radiographic parameters of acromial morphology and assessed the association between different radiographic characteristics on the one hand and subacromial impingement or rotator cuff tears ...
متن کاملAcromial shapes and extension of rotator cuff tears: magnetic resonance imaging evaluation.
Magnetic resonance imaging makes it possible to inspect the status of the rotator cuff and the shape of the acromion. To clarify the relationship between acromial shapes and rotator cuff tears, we evaluated magnetic resonance images obtained in 192 shoulders. We classified the acromial shapes into 3 types: type I (flat), type II (curved), and type III (hooked). Among a group of 91 shoulders wit...
متن کاملAcromion Index in Korean Population and Its Relationship with Rotator Cuff Tears
BACKGROUND Among the many causes of rotator cuff tears, scapular morphology is associated with the accelerating degenerative process of the rotator cuff. Acromion index (AI) was previously introduced and compared in two populations. METHODS We enrolled 100 Korean patients diagnosed with full-thickness rotator cuff tears by magnetic resonance imaging and intraoperative arthroscopic findings be...
